The Use of Artificial Intelligence on Capital Markets
Dzuro, Daniel ; Budík, Jan (referee) ; Dostál, Petr (advisor)
The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the possibility of creating a tool capable of predicting commodity prices. Along with other business strategies, tools and markets analyses for financial and capital markets, this tool should help make the best estimate of future developments on the observed markets. The main market, on which this work is focused, is the agricultural commodities market, namely corn and its related markets. The fundamental basis upon which the arguments in this thesis are built, is the use of artificial intelligence, particularly neural networks. The whole application is presented using a graphical user interface that allows even those with little or no understanding of this field to delve deeper into the interesting area - using modern computer systems to support trading activities.

In this issue we also look at how global inventory levels affect commodity prices, focusing, among other things, on fundamental factors (production, consumption and inventories), which should be the main drivers of both current a nd future commodity prices. Using simple statistics, we then deduce the effect of these fundamentals, as well as other possible factors, on the prices of individual commodities.

Global Economy Outlook - February 2016
Česká národní banka
The February issue of Global Economic Outlook presents the regular monthly overview of recent and expected developments in selected territories, focusing on key economic variables: inflation, GDP growth, leading indicators, interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices. In this issue we also consider how global imbalances in the world economy have changed since the start of the millennium in the context of the abating crisis period. The crisis has been reflected not only in a considerable worsening of the largest economies’ external positions (current account balances), but also in a deterioration of their domestic fiscal positions (public finance balances). Thus, an intensification of the twin deficit phenomenon is significantly complicating the process of reducing global imbalances in the world economy.
